We Interrupt this Spell...

"I - I'm not quite certain," Vincent said in bewilderment. "It looks very much like some sort of Magically produced Feedback."

"Maybe whatever tests Norla and Xyllis are doing are interfering with your Viewing Spell," Helia said.

"Maybe, but it's doubtful," Vincent frowned. "This is a simple mirror-to- wall spell - it shouldn't be affected by anything actually in the room because the spell itself doesn't reach that far."

"So what does that mean?" Fred(a) asked, coming to stand beside Astra.

"If it's not accidental interference, it would mean that someone, for whatever reason, is actively jamming me from seeing what's going on in that chamber."

1. "This requires some thought," Vincent said, sitting down to puzzle out a way around the interference.
2. "Then I will find out myself," Helia declared, and before Vincent could stop her, she pulled her sword and pulled open the door.
3. "Look," Astra said, "It's starting to fade." Sure enough, it quickly turned to a view of the inner chamber.
4. "Look," Fred(a) said, "It's starting to change color again."
5. Suddenly, the swirling cloud coalesced into a scene none of them expected.
6. Suddenly, the swirling cloud burst from the mirror and enveloped Vincent.
7. At that moment, the door to the inner chamber swung open.
